Abstract

Under certain conditions the concentration and flux of a substance moving in a stochastic flow field are described by the stochastic convection equation. A numerical method for solving the one-dimensional problem is studied here. The differential operator is replaced by a discrete linear operator based on finite differences. The resulting system of stochastic equations is then replaced by a system of equations whose solution is the mean concentration or mean flux. This final system is analysed and conditions for a stable numerical solution are obtained. Finally, numerical examples are given and are compared to an approximate analytical solution to the stochastic convection equation.
